Multiple input, multiple output (MIMO) is a communication technique that uses multiple antennas (or other transducers) at each end of a communication channel. For example, multiple transmit antennas may be used to transmit signals into a wireless channel and multiple receive antennas may be used to receive signals at the other end of the channel. MIMO technology is capable of providing improved spectral efficiency in the channel by providing benefits such as array gain, diversity gain, and increased co-channel interference rejection. These benefits can be used to provide increases in data rate, communication range, reliability, number of users services, and/or other operational parameters. Multicarrier communication is a technique that uses a number of relatively narrowband subchannels to transmit data from one point to another. Multicarrier technologies, such as orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM), can be used to provide resistance to intersymbol interference (ISI) and other harmful channel effects. Strategies are needed for efficiently implementing multicarrier communication techniques within MIMO based systems.
